Description:
RCA's RTD160 complete home theater system packs a progressive-scan DVD/CD player, a high-power surround-sound receiver, and a multichannel speaker system into one affordable package. (You supply the television.) Whether you're firing up your favorite movies, cranking up your audio or MP3 music CDs, or lining up friends and family for custom digital-photo slide shows, this is the system for you. The system's central unit merges a DVD/CD player and audio/video surround receiver. The disc player spins DVDs and CDs, from standard audio discs to recordable CDs filled with MP3 music files, or JPEG digital photos (including Kodak Photo CDs). The receiver powers the supplied 5.1-channel speaker system (front and rear left/right, center speaker, and passive subwoofer) with 30 watts per channel x 5 (front and rear left/right, center speaker) and 50 watts for the system's 6.5-inch passive subwoofer. Discrete Dolby Digital 5.1-channel audio decoding lets you enjoy spacious, full-bodied surround effects from commercial DVDs. And, your Dolby Pro Logic-encoded VHS tapes will sound great in 4-channel surround (left, center, right, and monaural left/right surround), and the system even features Dolby Pro Logic II, special processing that generates 5.1 mixes in realtime from any stereo (2-channel source). Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the RTD160 is equipped to deliver the full potential of your DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. The RTD160 also performs 3:2 pulldown detection and reversal. DVD mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; reverse 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture. A drift-free, digital FM/AM tuner offers 45 station presets so your favorite stations are never more than a button-push away, and a headphone jack lets you listen in private. For night listening without headphones, the system offers audio compression to minimize dramatic increases in sound level between quiet and loud movie passages. What's in the Box
DVD player/integrated surround amplifier, 4 satellite speakers, a center speaker, a passive subwoofer, a remote control (RCR311AC1), remote batteries, a composite-video cable, FM antenna, a user's manual, all requisite speaker cabling.
